News: GRACE WOODROOFE UNVEILS NEW SINGLE “HAPPY AGAIN”

(Friday 24 October) Perth-born, Melbourne-based singer and guitarist Grace Woodroofetoday unveils her newest single, “Happy Again”, out independently. The release follows Grace’s celebrated return earlier this year with fellow single “I Love You Babe”, stepping into a new era marked by raw honesty and enveloping indie-pop soundscapes.

Sonically anchored in layers of soft, shoegaze strumming and more soaring inflections from producer Oscar Dawson (Holy Holy), “Happy Again” charts the feeling of diving head-first and whole-body into a new relationship with complete surrender, one that Grace describes is; “overwhelming and beautiful all at once.” Grace’s indelible vocals are as absorbing as ever, wrought with emotion and erupting in the tidal wave of the chorus, while a fuzzy yet forthright guitar-driven soundscape mimics the feeling of explosive ecstasy.

She continues; “‘Happy Again’ gives me a full-body, visceral reaction. The music sounds exactly how it felt: pure release, an explosion of adrenaline and total surrender. When Oscar and I began writing, I told him I wanted the song to feel like looking up through the leaves of a tree and suddenly being blinded by the sun. At the end of the song, I repeat “I never thought I would be happy again” over and over. Screaming those words was so emotional and cathartic for me. I truly felt saved. As the guitar turns manic, my whole body gives over, just like I did in the relationship. I was his entirely, no matter the cost. I wanted this song to capture that feeling of being consumed, of giving myself over to the explosion.”
